2mosquito718 - thanks :slight_smile:

#182

Mike, I have a full body render of Liza to check out.

#183

Yes I could send a CD. Can you use .max files? Otherwise you’re going to lose all the textures and lighting.

The texture on that jacket looks great.

#184

Mosquito718: I like the clothing. I adore the clothing. I love the clothing.

Mirabeau: Great! I have a large format printer and I will print out the residence tonight. I want to see how paper cutouts of the characters look in front to the building and…

Bonestructure: walking in front of your scene. I sent you a pm this evening with an address. Put the max files on the cd and can you export in OBJ format also? Add a text file Interior1a.txt with your software version and any notes you want to pass on down the pipeline.

#185

will do. Hope you can use it. I mostly just expected to make a matte lol

Hi Bonestructure
Great job with scene.

Thanks Mike for the comment about the suit. I’ll be done texturing and laying uv’s in a couple of days.

#187

Mike, it may not be safe to send you the files. Right at the moment, I appear to have a virus.

#188

ok, i’ve got the modeling done on the flip phone, the texturing is going to be much more complicated. the buttons are flat on the phone, so i’m going to be painting a multilayered mask texture to pull it off. i haven’t done this before, so i’m going to get some very good practice doing it.

here are the open and closed renders for the phone.

Hi Mike. Here’s the progress with the English Teacher:

Any comments? I will give you the hands by Sunday…

Everyone: The model page on the web site is now password protected. Only members of the pygmalion project will be able to down load your models.

bonestructure: Do you have a place where you can host a high res image of your scene? Just in case you run into trouble with the files we will still have something to work with.

Adalast: The way the storyboard is set up, Cell Phone Girl has the flip phone. You could make that phone’s skin more feminine if you want to. Of course, it would be no big deal to switch the phone between CPG and Cell Phone Boy.

dark_jedi_1929: Great! I’ve been sending out a few queries to find someone to texture your model. Your posting might raise some interest.

#191

i’m using a pinkish/lavender chrome material for the flip phone. the buttons are so far being done with displacements maps, i’m trying to avoid modeling them, because i have a feeling i will be wanting to change them. only one problem, to get them to be smooth enough, i have to have the edge length at .5, which takes a bit of time to calculate. if anyone can help me speed up the calculations and keep the buttons smooth, i would enjoy the help.

#192

How high rez do you need it to be?

#193

The most we could use in this show is 4 times dvd resolution:
4 x 720 x 480 = 2880 x 1920
That’s 5.5 meg.

The minimum would be 2160 x 1440, about 3 Meg.

#194

hi everybody, here’s model with some new textures added, also i’d try to use paint fx.
software render - about 12 min
tomorrow i’ll try to render it with needed res - 2880 x 1920

crits and comments?

Hi everyone,

Dark Jedi- Great Hand!
Hi Adalast- that cellphone looks great too. I think for your rendering, you might want to lower the settings if you’re using raytracing. You can lower reflections, and refractions to a lower setting to speed up your render time. Try the lowest settings first and then raise it up little by little and test to see how much you need. It’s a little bit too reflective right now which is probably slowing up your renders.

Here’s GBS:

I added poly eyelashes as well (you can’t really see them from this photo). Let me know if ther’es anything else to do before I start rigging. I can start rigging on Monday.

#197

thanks mosquito…your GBS looks positively, well, like a cranky old man :wink:

Excuse me for the delay… Here it is one smaller up of Scotsman… I promise later I post the wires… please crits

I really admire you guys that can create characters and stuff. I’m god enough at creating objects, but so far hopeless at creating organics.
